Up Close and Personal – 02072025

In our journey through life, we encounter certain individuals who touch our lives in an indelible way.

Today, I remember two such people in my journey, and I’ll be dedicating this post to them. The rest of the month will be dedicated to celebrating others who have impacted my life in similar ways.

The first person I want to celebrate today is my Secondary School English teacher in my final year, Mrs. Ogedengbe. I recall that my handwriting was quite terrible back then (some still say I write like a medical doctor though ). When she started teaching us English Language and found it difficult to read my handwriting in my notebook, she began devoting special attention to helping me improve. Her support made a tremendous difference. Thank you, ma, for your labour of love.

The second person also taught me English Language. At the time, I was struggling to get the minimum C6 (Credit) required in WAEC to gain admission. She would tutor me and my late younger brother every other evening, free of charge. We both eventually passed English Language in WAEC. Without her support, I may not have been able to proceed to OAU to study Accounting when I did. Her name is Mrs. Ogunfolabi. I am forever grateful, ma. God bless you richly.

Let’s be more intentional about remembering those who have impacted our lives, and let’s dedicate this month to reaching out to them.

Enjoy your day and the rest of the week!
